the whole biography
Deeply rooted in a lifelong passion for sound, Adred (Adam Baker) has carved out a highly respected space within the global drum and bass and jungle communities. His musical journey is profoundly inspired by his late father, a musician known affectionately as Kimba, whose enduring legacy instilled an early and permanent reverence for the craft of music-making. Eschewing standard, cookie-cutter templates, Adred’s production style is characterized by a meticulous, highly textured approach. Favoring a dynamic workflow that leans into the rich analog warmth of tools like the ASM Hydrasynth, Arturia, and Eventide processing, he builds sonic environments that are as cinematic as they are heavy. This dedication to deep, rolling atmospherics, complex breakbeat manipulation, and heavyweight sub-bass naturally caught the attention of drum and bass royalty, leading to a permanent home on Goldie's seminal Metalheadz label. With a substantial and growing catalog on the imprint, Adred's output represents the true vanguard of modern jungle. Whether in the studio or behind the decks, his work is a testament to an unwavering commitment to the genre's underground ethos—delivering music built for massive sound systems, yet intricate enough for deep headphone listening.Their RA profile lists Metalheadz, Soul:r, Dispatch Recordings, 31 Records and 3 more.Recently at Paragon, KEYBAR · often with Goldie, Diverge, Anónima, none of them here that night

the whole biography
From Paris and Berlin to Lisbon, Marrakech and Indonesia - Christian has paved his way around the world into the ranks of selectors ushering in the electronic renaissance you see here before you. With backgrounds in fashion, fine & culinary arts - Tokyo’s idea of a dance floor could be compared to a painting or a well plated dish. His sound is comprised of deep emotion & strategic choices ranging from velvety House to magnetic Techno, warped Breaks and all in between the spectrum of dance music. Christian Tokyo has graced all but a few clubs here in New York - from Bronx house parties to the edge of Ridgewood. Now retiring a 3 year long run of weekly parties at NYC’s cherished bar - Home Sweet Home; Tokyo moves on to focus his time and energy on playing in more countries, building a namesake party in NYC and releasing forthcoming independent projects of his own. Having already been featured on video & radio platforms (NTS, Rinse, Lot Radio etc.) and already performing alongside newer artists and classic NYC legends like the Bronx’s world renowned duo the Martinez Brothers and James Blake (to name a few) Tokyo continues to step forward as a premier selector in a new wave of DJs firmly taking up sonic arms to represent their hometowns. Being raised out of a musical household with mentors from iconic underground New York City parties and establishments from young (The Loft & Limelight) solidified Christian's interest and dedication to his role in continuing the history of dance music. Expanding community around dance music and holding space for new and older members is Tokyo’s ultimate goal and if you’ve been fortunate enough to make his acquaintance at least just once - one would fully understand.
